Saint John the Evangelist
“Pessimists complain about the wind! Optimists
hope it will change. Realists adjust the sails!”
... On each Friday of Lent we are all encouraged
to take on some voluntary discipline or abstinence!
... Join us this Friday (27), and on each Friday of
Lent, at 6:00pm, and travel the ‘Stations of the
Cross’ in church, together! Come along!
... Our Holy Name Society is sponsoring a Fish-Fry
Dinner each Friday from 5:00pm to 9:00pm in the
Hall, with Fun Bingo from 7:00pm. It’s a fun time
for all the family.
... Saint Polycarp was martyred at the age of 86 in
155 AD. As a young man, he was a disciple of our
own Saint John the Evangelist. As Bishop of Smyrna
(modern Izmir, Turkey) he was a revered Christian
leader and became a target for persecution. He
was tried and, refusing to renounce his faith, was
burnt at the stake! His feast day is Monday (23).
... Our Annual Catholic Appeal lends support to
the many and varied ministries of our Diocese. It
assists with our extensive education ministries in
our parishes, supports our Diocesan seminary, the
much needed continuing education of our priests,
and the multi faceted work of Catholic Charities
and it’s many outreaches.
... This year, Saint John is expected to raise $69,000
in support of our Diocesan ministry and our
‘parishes in need’ in Imperial Valley.
... Please make a meaningful pledge in support,
that you will strive to meet over the next ten
months. Just return your completed pledge card to
the Parish Office. Please be generous!
... Contributions last weekend (15) amounted to
$14,769.81, with 374 families using envelopes. A
further $4,079.75 was contributed ‘Online’ by 114
families. You make it all happen!
... 60 of our wonderful youth joyfully prepared and
served 198 Pancake Breakfasts last Sunday (15),
and raised $754.00 in support of their great ‘Build
a House for a needy family in Tijuana’ project
... Our High School classes resume today (22) with
‘Group Night’ at 6:00pm. For more info, contact
Isaac at 760 753 3679.
... Sincere condolences to John and Isabelle Chambers and their children, on the death of John’s Dad,
Stan Chambers in LA on Friday (13). Stan was a
renowned broadcaster on KTLA television for 63
years! May he rest in peace. John and Isabelle own
and run ‘French Pastry’ here in Encinitas.

... Happy Birthday to ‘Bell’ Montiel on her 94th
Birthday on Wednesday (18). Bell is ever with us!

Tuesday (17), a big seventy something that rhymes
with ‘live’. Among many other things, Larry is lead
Usher at our 10:30am Mass. Larry, Nancy and family are also ever with us.
... Our Saint John School children in Second Grade
celebrate the Sacrament of Penance for the first
time this Thursday (26), at 6:30pm. Forgiveness!

EL SIGNIFICADO DE NUESTRO BAUTISMO
Cuaresma es la época del año que dedicamos a
escudriñar nuestras vidas a la luz de nuestro Bautismo en
la muerte y resurrección de Jesús. Las lecturas de hoy son
como un catecismo
abreviado de lo que
nuestras vidas de
bautizados significan.
Tal como Noé pasó
por las aguas del
diluvio a una alianza
con Dios, así también
nosotros entramos en
una alianza, una
relación con Dios
prometida por nuestro
Bautismo. El salmo nos recuerda que si realmente
vivimos la alianza, el modo de vida que Dios quiere que
vivamos no va a ser una carga, sino una fuente de amor y
verdad. La carta de Pedro ofrece una explicación de lo
que significa nuestro bautismo: es una plegaria a Dios
pidiendo una buena conciencia. ¿Cómo obtenemos esta
buena conciencia? Las palabras que Jesús proclama justo
después de su tentación nos señala el camino:
“Arrepiéntanse y crean en el Evangelio”. Podría ser un
buen ejercicio espiritual mantener estas lecturas a nuestro
alcance durante todo el tiempo de Cuaresma, un medio
para ayudarnos a volver a una vida vivida según nuestras
promesas bautismales.
LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — Dios estableció
una alianza con Noé y sus hijos y les
prometió que nunca más habría un
diluvio devastador (Génesis 9:8-15).
Salmo Descúbrenos, Señor, tus caminos (Salmo 25 (24)).
Segunda lectura — Aquella agua representaba el
bautismo que ahora nos salva (1 Pedro 3:18-22).
Evangelio — Después de los cuarenta días en el desierto,
Jesús viene a Galilea proclamando el Evangelio de Dios
EL VIA CRUCIS
Acompáñenos todos los Viernes de Cuaresma a
rezar el Vía Crucis a las 6:00 pm. en la Iglesia.
PESCADO FRITO DURANTE LA CUARESMA
También, los invitamos a que nos acompañen
durante los Viernes de Cuaresma a disfrutar del
delicioso Pescado Frito en el salón de 5:00 pm. a
9:00 pm. $5 por los adultos y $3 por los niños.
Bingo es $10 por 10 cartas. Los esperamos!
El numero cuarenta, según un dicho árabe, si
quieres conocer bien a una persona, debes convivir
durante cuarenta días con ella. Cuarenta no puede
tomarse al pie de la letra, ya que en las culturas semitas
de siglos pasados cuarenta significaba “un largo periodo
de tiempo”. Los judíos, cristianos y musulmanes
provenimos de esas culturas antiguas y es por eso que
para nosotros el número cuarenta es muy importante.
Algunos ejemplos bíblicos: El diluvió duró cuarenta días.
Moisés habló con Dios durante cuarenta días en el Sinaí.
El pueblo de Israel pasó cuarenta años en el desierto
purificándose de sus pecados. Jesús ayunó cuarenta días
en el desierto antes de iniciar su ministerio público. El
profeta Mahoma tenía cuarenta años cuando Dios lo
llamó; asimismo, según el Islam, Dios creó a Adán en
cuarenta días, y la persona que desea sabiduría necesita
ayunar cuarenta días.
No se sabe de dónde viene esta conexión del número
cuarenta con la religión. Algunos astrónomos piensan que
es debido al planeta Venus. Venus (estrella matutina)
viaja por el cielo regresando a su lugar de origen cada
cuarenta años menos cuarenta días.

LA BELLEZA DEL PERDÓN
La humanidad nunca es tan hermosa como
cuando reza implorando perdón o cuando perdona a
otro. —Jean P. F. Richter
